Well, you can dress up a pig and call it your sister, but it's still a pig and still not your sister. The government may consider this marriage, but God is clear on what marriage means.

Okay now, let's get practical.

A pair of elderly lesbians became the first couple to have their same-sex union officially blessed in San Francisco, challenging a state law that bars same-sex marriages.

Challenging??? How about it is illegal! Why isn't this mayor being put out of office NOW for violating state law?

[DonQ]

This is NOT the first same sex wedding in the US.

Remember Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley??

Instead of calling couples "bride" and "groom", the wedding licence application listed lesbian couples as "1st applicant" and "2nd applicant."

At the end of the ceremony, it was said, "You may now kiss the person standing next to you."

1st Gay Marriage is in California in open defiance to state law. What is Governator Arnold going to do about it?

I'm waiting to hear. This should be interesting.

[Lady Eileen]

Rush has been talking about this right now.

new liberal Mayor Gavin Newsom

a.k.a. the conservative candidate by his Green opponent, Matt Gonzoles-bian. Gavin just wanted to watch; er, a wedding that is.

[b4its2late]

The honeymoon will be outrageous too, I bet.

[PJ-Comix]

I thought the first gay wedding was when Rock Hudson wed Gomer Pyle in Vegas.

Serious question: can't SOMEONE be jailed/cited/whatevered for breaking the law?

Anyone know?

Arrest this scum Newsom, Arnold.

[Aliska]

Breaking the law is setting a dangerous precedent.

[Uncle Hal]

Folks I live in the SF Bay Area. The ultra liberal SF Chronicle had an orgasm over this story with 2 front page articles glorifying these gay marriages and an editorial calling for legalizing these types of unions. This must of been what the last days of the Roman Empire were like.

Did the legislature change the law or are the courts breeching the powers of the judicial branch again?

Constitutional Crisis here...
